This is the modern proportion, 45 ml of bourbon to 30 each of Campari and vermouth rosso, which lets the whiskey lead where the original equal parts let the bitter win. Bourbon's vanilla and caramel round off Campari's edge in a way gin never does in a Negroni. Stir it well and serve it up in a chilled coupe, with the orange peel expressed over the top.
